Good Vibes

Good vibes are simply higher states of vibration. The terms good and positive are used interchangeably to describe something desirable. For example, every time you label a past event as a good or positive experience, you’re referring to it in this way because it went as you’d hoped – or at least not as badly as it could have.

Essentially, you want the things you want because they make you feel good. All of life’s desires are pursued to bring about a pleasurable emotional state and to avoid displeasure. Most of us believe that attaining our desires will lead to happiness.

Given that emotion is one of the most powerful vibrations you can control, and, fundamentally, positive emotions are what we’re in search of, we can infer that our quest in life is to experience good vibrations. Think about it:

when you feel good, your life also appears to be good. If you could continuously experience good vibes, you’d always view your life in a positive light.

Physician Dr Hans Jenny is known for coining the term ‘cymatics’, which is the study of visible sound and vibration. One of his best-known experiments shows the effect of sound on sand sprinkled onto on a flat metal plate that’s made to vibrate at different frequencies by stroking a violin bow against its edge. Various patterns are formed depending on the different frequencies. At higher vibrations, beautifully intricate patterns are formed; lower vibrations produce less appealing shapes. A higher vibration, then, creates more enjoyable effects.

Ideally, we want to feel as loving and joyful as we can in life. These are the highest-vibrating feelings, and will help us manifest more of what we want – and, by extension, more good vibrations. In contrast, feelings of hatred, anger and despair have a very low vibration. They’ll attract more of what we don’t want.

Based on the principle of the Law of Vibration, to receive good vibes we must project good vibes. As transmitters and receivers of vibrational frequencies, the vibrations we put out are always pulling in stuff that’s vibrating at a similar frequency to us. This means the feelings we put out into the Universe will be returned to us through matching vibrations. So, if you send out feelings of joy, then you’ll be given more things to feel joyful about. The common misconception is that you’ll feel good only once you have what you want. The truth is that you can feel good right now.

The feelings we project are returned on a like-for-like basis through our experiences.

Ultimately, self-love and raising the level of your vibration go hand in hand.

When you make an effort to raise your vibration, you show yourself the love and care you deserve. You’ll feel good and attract good. By taking positive actions and changing your mindset, you’ll manifest greater things.

By loving yourself, you’ll live a life you love.
